  1. I just woke up. Lazy Saturday morning (8:45 am here), but I have get up and go house hunting.

     

    Playing some Sonic on my Mega Drive.

    Old school. Right on. Rep for that.

     

    J.C. JUST GIFTED ME DEUS EX: HUMAN REVOLUTION.

    I hope you enjoy it. As I said in the General Chat, good deeds never go unpunished. And you gifted a lot of people with games and a TV (that last one was for real?), so this is your punishment. Now you'll suffer having to decide between Skyrim and Deus EX. MUAHAHAHAHAAAaahahahahaha!

  2. Anywho, Axel, thanks for the gift. You so cool! :D
    Sayum heree, thanks Axel.

    Gifts? What gifts? I have no gifts! :(

     

     

    Just kidding, of course. I saw that post somewhere, but can't find it now.

     

    EDIT: found it. Remember, no good deed goes unpunished ;)

     

  3. No, no, no. You need to start with the classics, you know? Old school.

  4. From a CNN article:

     

    "While no deaths were reported in this year's shopping, authorities said they handled fights, shootings and other incidents through the morning."

     

    Thank God for small favors, right? :wtf:

     

    I'm amazed at how people completely loose control over a few discounts.

     

    Behold the madness.

  5. Oh, well, chupacabra females are notorioulsy smaller and have shorter hair.

     

    Also, he was looking for a place to crash, since his wife kicked him out, after catching him with a goat... and not precisely feeding :wtf:.

  6. Sorry, I was busy playing Zelda :D

     

    I've played around 15 hours by now. No idea where in the game am I... I guess about halfway through. Or less, since I always make a point of completing all the side quests. ALL of them.

     

    I always find it refreshing to play a Zelda game. It reminds me of the first time I got my hands on one of them, with "A link to the past", so many years ago... Still my favorite. I had the overworld theme stuck in my head for months.

     

     

    Princess Zelda is such a tease on this one. Poor Link. He never gets some loving ;)

     

     

    Odly enough, I find this Zelda to be more similar to Wind Waker than to Twilight Princess.

    I remember a chill going down my spine the first time I played Wind Waker, since everything and everyone from the previous games was long gone, and Hyrule was remembered only as a legend.

     

  7. A physicist, an engineer and a mathematician agree to take part in an experiment. Each person is locked in a room with nothing but a single can of beans.

     

    After three days the researchers open each door in turn. In the first room they find the physicist happily scrawling equations across a wall, and the can of beans is neatly popped open. They ask him how he opened the can and he says "Oh, I applied pressure to the stress points".

     

    They take their notes and move on to the next room, where the engineer is snoring in a corner. The can is lying beside him, a smashed pile of metal. They wake him and ask him how he opened the can, to which he replies "I battered it to it's failure point."

     

    Finally, they open the third door. There they find the mathematician holding the can, rocking back and forth and muttering "Assume the can is open. Assume the can is open."

  8. I wanted to point out two stories developing this week.

     

    The first one is the signal that was received from the "Phobos-Grunt" space probe Russia launched a couple of weeks ago. It entered orbit but failed to fire it's engines for the push to Mars. Now, a signal has been received.

     

    I know it's highly improbable, but it would be awesome if they could salvage the mission. Let's remember the primary goal for this probe was to return to earth carrying a sample from Phobos, Mars' largest moon.

     

    The second news is the imminent launch of Curiosity (this Saturday, if all goes well). This is one badass machine, also headed for Mars, packed with a radioisotope thermoelectric generator (which means no more dusty solar panels slowing the mission down), human height mounted hi-resolution cameras, a powerful laser (for dealing with the odd Cacodemon it might encounter) and a lot of sensors and instruments.

     

    And forget about landing surrounded by balloons and bouncing around. This thing is doing it old school. With parachutes, rockets and, as it says on NASA's fact sheet, "in the final seconds, the upper stage acts as a sky crane, lowering the upright rover on a tether to the surface."

     

    As I said: badass.

     

    If Curiosity lands safely next year, I'm throwing the biggest Accursed Farms Super Mega Awesome Lottery ever.
